WHY WE LOVE IT

No, it’s not a Tank. And yes, it deserves your attention!

While Parisian jeweler to the stars Cartier may be best known in horological circles for its famed Tank watch, the French firm produced — and continues to produce — numerous other models that deserve equal billing for their unique and sumptuous designs. 

Launched in 2007, the Ballon Bleu is an adventurous take on the Cariter aesthetic — which is of course itself already unique within the greater watchmaking world. Featuring an opulent, round case and a ‘bubble’ winding crown, the Ballon Bleu provides a captivating housing for the maison’s world famous combination of Arabic numerals and thin sword hands.

But this particular Ballon Bleu, is no ordinary example.

What we have here, is Cartier having some fun. This Ballon Bleu 'Panther Spots' features a solid 18k white gold case set with 127 "brilliantly cut" diamonds, a sapphire crystal, and a guarded-sapphire cabochon crown. As if that weren't enough, Cartier has scrapped their 'Roman' dial completely in favor of a white gold dial - fully encrusted with an additional 181 diamonds with black enamel 'spots' and a blued-steel 'sword' handset - and it is a stunning thing to behold.

This is a brilliant display of exactly why Cartier identifies as a Jewelry company. It is a true piece of wearable art, and while perhaps excessive, that is exactly what it was created to be. We think that it has achieved that with bells on. 

OVERALL CONDITION

The case is in outstanding condition overall showing only faint signs of wear from gentle use. Factory diamond set white gold dial with black enamel 'spots' is in as-new condition with matching blued-steel 'sword' handset. Guarded sapphire cabochon crown.
